this is my HTML code for the upload form
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" role="form">
<div class="form-group">
<label for="exampleInputFile">File Upload</label>
<input type="file" name="file" id="file" size="150">
<p class="help-block">Only Excel/CSV File Import.</p>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-default" name="Import" value="Import">Upload</button>
</form>
The PHP code for the connection to the database and the import is below.
<?
mysql_connect("localhost","root","") or die("Unable To Connect");
mysql_select_db("tutorial") or die("Database Not Found");
?>
<?php
if(isset($_POST["Import"]))
{
echo $filename=$_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"];
if($_FILES["file"]["size"] > 0)
{
$file = fopen($filename, "r");
//$sql_data = "SELECT * FROM prod_list_1 ";
while (($emapData = fgetcsv($file, 10000, ",")) !== FALSE)
{
//print_r($emapData);
//exit();
$count++;
$sql = "INSERT into customers values ('','$emapData[1]','$emapData[1]','$emapData[2]')";
mysql_query($sql);
}
fclose($file);
echo 'CSV File has been successfully Imported';
header('Location: test.php');
}
else
echo 'Invalid File:Please Upload CSV File';
}
?>

//First we need to make a connection with the database
$host='localhost'; // Host Name.
$db_user= 'root'; //User Name
$db_password= '';
$db= 'testdatabase'; // Database Name.
$conn=mysql_connect($host,$db_user,$db_password) or die (mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($db) or die (mysql_error());
echo $filename=$_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"];
if($_FILES["file"]["size"] > 0)
{
$file = fopen($filename, "r");
$count = 0;
$sql_data = "SELECT * FROM person";

echo "success";
}
}
fclose($file);
echo 'CSV File has been successfully Imported';
header('Location: index.php');
}
else
echo 'Invalid File:Please Upload CSV File';
}

Don't use the Excel file as is. You see what gibberish you get.
Instead, do one of these:
"Export" the data from Excel into a .csv file, then LOAD DATA into MySQL.
Use a PHP API that lets you fetch data from Excel. Then INSERT the data into a MySQL table.
I have to write a code were i need to import the email ids of people with their names which will be on a excel sheet into the database, but the issue which am facing is, it is inserting blank data into the database,please help, am new to this concept,pardon me if i went wrong somewhere.

EXCEL Structure(.csv format)
Thank you.
I have a code in which I can import .CSV file in my mysql. But I can not import Excel file. Some garbage values insert in my database while I import Excel file.
<?php
if(isset($_POST["Import"]))
{
//First we need to make a connection with the database
include("connection.php");
echo $filename=$_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"];
if($_FILES["file"]["size"] > 0)
{
$file = fopen($filename, "r");
//$sql_data = "SELECT * FROM prod_list_1 ";
while (($emapData = fgetcsv($file, 10000, ",")) !== FALSE)
{
//print_r($emapData);
//exit();
$sql = "INSERT into city(city_id,city_name) values ('$emapData[0]','$emapData[1]')";
mysql_query($sql);
}
fclose($file);
echo 'CSV File has been successfully Imported';
header('Location: index.php');
}
else
echo 'Invalid File:Please Upload CSV File';
}
?>

Looks like you are trying to read an excel file using some code that is able to parse only csv files, you can't, the format is completely different.
Check for filetype and use a library like PHPExcel if the user sends you an excel spreadsheet.
You can use EasyXLS Excel library to import Excel file and than to insert data into MySQL database:
$workbook = new COM("EasyXLS.ExcelDocument");
$rows = $workbook->easy_ReadXLSActiveSheet_AsList($filename);
For more details see this link about importing Excel file to MySQL using EasyXLS.
I want to save my excel file as table in database using PHP. Is it possible?
I tried like below. But we need to give table name.
<html>
<head>
<?php

$filename=$_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"];
$heading=true;
if($_FILES["file"]["size"] > 0)
{
$file = fopen($filename, "r");
while (($emapData = fgetcsv($file, 10000)) !== FALSE)
{
$num = count($emapData);
echo $num;
echo $emapData[0];
//check if the heading row
if($heading) {
// unset the heading flag
$heading = false;
// skip the loop
continue;
}
$sql = "INSERT into sheet(name,first_name,last_name) values('$emapData[0]','$emapData[1]','$emapData[2]')";
$row=mysql_query($sql);
}
fclose($file);
echo 'CSV File has been successfully Imported';
}
else
echo 'Invalid File:Please Upload CSV File';
}
?>
